        Have you place the correct bios in the correct place? More information is needed to assist.

          @badwolf MGS works great on my rpi3, with both lr-pcsx-rearmed , pcsx-rearmed, iso, and eboot.pbp format. So if there is a problem it may come from your dump. I believe mgs1 was a protected game, maybe check on that side

              @badwolf ... from my cds, and you probably don't want to ask that kind of questions as it is against the TOS of the forum to share roms/isos

                  MGS works for me but the screen goes black when underwater. That's the only issue I ran into.

                    Why not? https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/ It seems you still have not read the link you agreed to read when you signed up and which is at the top of the page and which I linked above:

                    where should i be placing it and getting it?

                    https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2/forum-rules also, @Aryetis told you not to ask this. Please read the very detailed documentation provided.
